Who: Reed/Neptune and Eve/Salacia
When: Tuesday early afternoon
Where: heading to the aquarium
What: a DATE!
Reed had been plotting and scheming for a few days now. With the semester over, Reed had a much more flexible schedule. He was only teaching one summer class, because the university wanted him to focus heavily on his research. They knew he was close to a breakthrough, and they were excited about his contract with Ian Ward. Columbia would get a lot of good press out of the arrangement. They couldn't wait to brag about their young professor's achievements.
Working around his schedule was easy. The tricky part came in figuring out a time when Eve could go out without her knowing it. He wanted it to be a surprise. So he was sneaky about calling the restaurant where she worked, and he paid attention to any discussion of plans outside of her job. She didn't have anything going on (that he knew of) on Tuesday afternoon. He bought tickets to the aquarium in advance, made dinner reservations, even arranged to have time in the evening to witness the transit of Venus between the Earth and the Sun (something he didn't want to miss). He was on good terms with the school's astronomy department, and they had a viewing party set up complete with telescopes with special solar filters. It was going to be a good day. It had to be.
He and Eve had grown a lot closer a lot sooner than either of them had planned, but it was great. Reed liked Eve. He still wasn't sure where his feelings ended and Neptune's began, but it mattered less and less with each passing day. The only real hitch in their relationship was Ciaran, who was jealous at times. The major perk was that Neptune had been BEHAVING! He'd not so much as tried to fuck another woman since Salacia's return. Reed didn't know how long that would last, but he was enjoying it. He was enjoying Eve too. Their attempts to take things slow didn't really work out. The attraction was too strong, and they were having sex on a VERY regular basis. No complaints there!
He contemplated a quickie when he got home from spending the morning in the lab, but they had a busy day scheduled. "Put on something comfortable to spend the day out and about." He hoped the rain held off. There was a chance of it. "Weeee have a date today. Tonight. Pretty much starting now and ending whenever we end up back in your bed," he joked.
